Kabo Airline Makes An Emergency Landing

This was disclosed in Abuja, Tuesday, by the Director-General of Nigeria Civil Aviation Authority (NCAA), Capt. Fola Akinkuotu during an interactive session with news men. It could be recalled that the Kabo plane was conveying 512 passengers from Kano Airport en route Saudi Arabia when it resulted in crisis landing at the Sokoto Airport. 

After the plane landed, it was found that its tyres were deflated which damaged some parts of the instrument landing system at the airport. The pilot also did not comply with the directive given by air traffic controller on duty that the plane should land on runway 08 , but alternatively diverted to some other runway. The passengers who were on pilgrimage to Mecca were safely evacuated and subsequently transferred to some other aircraft which took them to their destination.

To God be the glory!
